Ah yes,

those ONE YEAR wonders!
They existed for ONE season, 1969.
After Spring Training in 1970, as we all know,
the bus got lost on the way home to Seattle,
and they ended up in Milwaukee,
and became the BREWERS!

QUESTION: In the history of pro baseball,
there has been only one other "one year" team.
Name them?

ANSWER: The MILWAUKEE BREWERS, 1901.
After 1 season they moved to
ST. LOUIS,
and became the BROWNS.
Strange, but true!

So, it was probably FATE that Milwaukee got the team?!?!

Baby Bib. rarest
of the rare 1969 SEATTLE PILOTS souvenir BABY BIB in unbelievable MINT
condition!! rarely if ever seen in ANY condition - even by advanced
collectors! Even though this item is offered on the Souvenir Page of the
Pilots programs - most collectors think it was never made. It was definitely
NOT a big seller! and the few that I know of were used as intended - a baby's
bib! hence they are stained and discolored from laundering. I imagine that the
one's that did get purchased were used and long ago thrown away! This beauty
is GEM MINT unused. It has been tucked away in storage since 1969! red and
blue on soft white terrycloth-like material with yellow border trim and ties.
approx. 9.5" by 12". The HOLY GRAIL of Seattle Pilot memorabilia! I
have owned many authentic Pilot game used jerseys; warm up jackets; hats;
bats; and many unique and one of a kind front office items. This is the FIRST
mint bib!! mint. $850.00

Scored Game
Programs. obtained from the estate of a local sports
aficionado. he attended the following games and meticulously
scored the programs in pencil. very neatly and well
done. he added commentary in the borders of the score
page. When one considers how low attendance was - and then
considers how many people actually purchased a program, and how
few of these how the knowledge, skill, and dedication to score the
complete game for both teams, not for just their favorite players
- but completely, and then how many survived, no less in such
superb condition - then you can get a concept of the
scarceness! each one is an historical time capsule.
